El Salvador's government acknowledged under UN inquiry that the Trump administration controls Venezuelans deported to the Cecot maximum-security prison. El Salvador stated it only facilitated the use of its infrastructure for detaining these individuals in accordance with international cooperation principles. U.S. authorities claimed the deportees are beyond their jurisdiction, thus lacking access to due process. Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele supported this narrative, mocking U.S. judicial intervention that led to delayed deportations despite an order to halt flights carrying the men.
The government of El Salvador admitted to UN investigators that Trump administration controls over 200 Venezuelan men deported in March to the Cecot prison.
El Salvador facilitated the use of its prison infrastructure for the custody of persons detained by the U.S. justice system, claiming limited jurisdiction.
